I love the turn this took in terms of the communication aspect. Beautiful insights. I really hope more couples see this and recognise the importance of communication and not assuming and creating expectations with lack of communication. And recognising gaps that are occurring in your communication with your partner. And something that I’ve personally realised is, actively work on your relationship; don’t let it become passive, you don’t realise how quickly paces can change and how quickly you can end up on different pages the moment you become passive. Talk about conflicts, read up on emotional bids, how can you be a better partner, check how we can make the relationship better for each other, BE OPEN AND TRANSPARENT. Talk about your vulnerabilities. And another thing that is important is, if it’s not working after you’ve both tried, then also accept the fact that it may be best to depart at respectful terms.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I completely agree-communication is the cornerstone of any strong relationship, and it’s so easy to forget how quickly things can drift without conscious effort. Actively working on the relationship instead of letting it run on autopilot is a game-changer, and recognizing emotional bids can make such a difference in feeling connected and valued. Being transparent, talking openly about vulnerabilities, and taking steps to grow together can really set the foundation for a deep, lasting bond. And yes, sometimes the best thing is to let go with respect and kindness when both partners have given their best but find that it’s time to move forward separately. Thank you again for these beautiful insights; they’re a reminder of what it truly means to build and nurture a meaningful relationship
